Medical Pot Grow Op Near School Enraged Parents

The owner was given a license to legally grow 146 plants for personal use, but many people have been complaining about odors coming from the home’s venting system. Parents say they’ve noticed the pungent smell of the plants on their kids’ clothes after they leave the elementary school.

“I’m shocked that this is happening, I can’t believe this,” said one woman at the gathering. “How can you give a guy a license to operate a marijuana growing operation across the street from a school?” A couple living in the house next-door say the odor given off by the plants is “unbearable.”

A meeting for the public was held Wednesday night at the Sam Chapman Public School to discuss the issue.
